Case Study: Anesthesia billing and coding rigor improves reimbursements
Our client, an IOWA-based anesthesia practice operating from 3 locations with 12 anesthesiologists in the group, was facing increased denials due to preventable causes. Anesthesia procedures are unique and require specific diagnosis codes. Hence, the quality of documentation by the Anesthesiologists plays a critical role in reducing coding-related denials. In this case study, we share the best practices applied by our team while billing & coding for Anesthesia practice.
